I really wanna ride Daredevil Dive... that thing looks awesome. I need friends to go on it with definatley because I'd be way too scared alone lol. Has anyone challenged Daredevil Dive? If so what was the experience like?

I have!!!! It is a great ride. when they pull you up your harness is really tight! Then your up there looking down and you realize how far 110 ft is up. Then once you pull that rip cord you harness gets really loose! It is very fun and ill reccomend it to anyone!!!!

Riding it this summer though, one of the employees who snuck on for the last ride of the night told me that he was riding because he wanted a ride on the yellow because it is the fastest train. He said it was modified somehow that made it the fastest.
Ahhh, gotta love that ejector air on the last row. That pre-drop is the perfect way to build up a little speed for the main drop. Last time I rode, the clamshell wasn't down as far as it could go, and I had the best ride ever on RB. Also, about that yellow train...I have heard similar comments from employees at GAm.

That's just what the guy told me, I didn't know if it was true or not, but I have heard rumors like that before. Maybe, just maybe, he was pulling my leg!

I posted about this on another website and someone said that they work for a park and know that the park has modified a train where they did something to the wheels which allow it to go faster. I perceived this as very dangerous, and um... what do I smell, oh, B.S. Yeah, it probably made the guy's day that I believed him.
